ATHENS, Ga. (AP) -- Jason Huisman hit two homers and Lance Tolbert pitched a complete game to lead Ole Miss to a 7-1 Southeastern Conference victory over Georgia Friday night.
Huisman got the Rebels (27-22, 10-14 SEC) on the scoreboard with a run-scoring triple in the third.
Georgia starter Zack Frachiseur (5-6) battled Tolbert (5-5), and the 1-0 Rebel lead carried into the eighth, when Huisman blasted a two-run homer.
An RBI single by Robert Shelton made it 4-0 and chased Frachiseur, who tied a career-high with 11 strikeouts.
Georgia (23-25, 8-17) scored off Tolbert in the bottom of the eighth on Lance Shannon's RBI single.
In the ninth, Brad Henderson homered off Georgia reliever Chris Clark and Huisman followed his 21st homer of the season.
